Maybe we need to ask Casey at FF how he got 85F for intake air on their 380 turbo car?
I still think the location of the IC is horrible and the primary cause of it's lack of efficiency. Has anyone thought about moving it forward and up a little and then isolating the engine area using the side ducts to flow are into the engine bay?
I would think trimming the plastic duct a little and removing some of that angle while raising the IC higher -- could probably gain 3-4" up and back. Isolate the engine bay with 3 pieces of aluminum (CF if it actually works) that can be easily removed/installed with rubber gromets around the necessary IC tubing. It might require some new IC tubing that is slightly longer (not much) -- but keeping the tube length short is a BIG plus.
Think I might take some measurements and pics.
